ELLENTON, FL – January 27, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Tickets are officially on sale for the 2026 SMX World Championship™ Playoffs and Final. As previously announced by the SMX League^™ , Playoff 1 will take place on Saturday, September 12 at Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio. Playoff 2 will take place on Saturday, September 19 at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California and the SMX World Championship Final will take place on Saturday, September 26 at Thunder Ridge Nature Arena in Ridgedale, Missouri.

SMX Priority Members can purchase tickets starting today, January 27 with public on-sale availability beginning Tuesday, February 3 at SuperMotocross.com.

Last year’s postseason run saw two of the sport’s brightest stars cement their place in the history books as Japanese athlete Jo Shimoda won his very first 250cc World Championship while era-defining Jett Lawrence successfully defended his 450cc World Championship and became the first athlete to win three back-to-back SMX World Championship titles in the premier class.

Columbus sits at the heart of the Midwest, a region long known for its passionate motorsports fan base and deep grassroots racing culture. Ohio has produced generations of riders and racing fans, making Historic Crew Stadium a natural fit for the SMX World Championship Playoffs. Every square foot of the venue’s expansive floor space will be utilized to create a unique SMX track layout that will include a large contingent of sand; an elevated start and use of an existing stage built into the stands.

Southern California is a staple in the Supercross and Motocross racing history books, making the area highly desirable for racing when the opportunity is presented. The 2026 regular season began in California a mere three weeks ago and for the first time in its history will also include a postseason round late in the year. Situated in the greater Los Angeles area, Dignity Health Sports Park brings the Playoffs to a market with a long-standing connection to the sport and a strong motorsports and media presence. Sand will be integrated into the track design to create a more natural terrain environment.
